We are excited to announce Nokia has launched Ovi, their app store, which is now open and packed with apps, widgets, ringtones, videos and more. Much to our delight, Trapster was featured on the Ovi Store homepage and the Ovi Blog .

We’re flattered that we made their blog post, and that they included this little blurb about us:

Trapster: For the lead-footed drivers amongst us, here’s a handy app to help you avoid another speeding ticket. On a GPS-enabled Nokia, like my 5800, I can give it a quick view before I jump in the car to see where the hot spots are. It crowd sources the information from other commuters and is 100% legal (no radar required). Try it out and you may find as I have, that the process of looking for hotspots encourages you to slow down in general, (good for the gas budget).

With 20,000 “items” up for grabs at launch, Nokia hopes to make a big dent in the mobile app market versus the mighty giants Apple & Google.

Download Trapster at the Ovi store (and yes, it’s free!).

Make sure to send Trapster to a fellow Nokian while you are there!
